Bridge 24 to Church Minshull (by Bridge 14) - Middlewich Branch


Sunday 18th August

We are moving on a couple of miles this morning to Church Minshull as we are meeting our friends Jane, Dave and Anthea for lunch in the Badger pub.

Footbridge
Railway Bridge
We set off from our mooring and chugged under a railway bridge which carried the West Coast Mainline and a few more bridges and on along the canal, past the moorings where the wasp nest is and a bit further on.

Lovely Sunny Morning

We then came to Bridge 14 and we moored up a short way beyond the bridge.  A while later Bill and Peanut turned up and moored up in front of us.

Couple More Bridges
Nice Shaped Bridge
We walked up to the pub to meet Jane, Dave and Anthea.  Jane’s hubbie Malcolm was coming as well but unfortunately got called into work, he had to go combining while the weather was good which was a pity but hopefully next time we meet he will be able to come.

We had a drink in the bar, then went to our table, the pub was really busy so I was glad we had booked.  We had a really nice lunch and a good catch up.  It was great to see them all again.

We waved Jane, Dave and Anthea off and then walked back down the road to the boat.  We are staying here tonight and also tomorrow then will chug on a bit further.
